“We had been aware of the dot proofing
capabilities of Star Proof for some time.
With the release of the new Epson
device, now capable of printing white ink
on clear and metallic substrates, the
decision to make the investment was a
no brainer!”

Epson UltraChrome HDR White Ink Technology :
The Epson Stylus ™ Pro WT7900 is an affordable, low
maintenance proofer that in addition to the wide, eight
colour gamut of the Epson UltraChrome ® ink range,
utilises the water-based White Ink to produce high
quality, colour accurate package proofs on both clear
and opaque substrates, and is also environmentally-friendly.
When paired with Star Proof, the Epson Stylus ™ Pro WT7900 offers a true dot
proofing solution for the Flexo, Gravure, Letterpress and Offset sectors, with
features and controls unavailable in other inkjet proofing solutions.
The World's First Aqueous-Based White Printing
Technology.
The Epson Stylus ™ Pro WT7900 was designed specifically for contract-
quality proofs and mock-ups for various flexographic and gravure printing
products such as packaging. The Epson Stylus Pro WT7900 incorporates
Epsons latest achievements in high-resolution ink jet technology - including
their breakthrough Epson UltraChrome ® HDR White Ink and hence is the
perfect solution for printing directly onto inkjet coated clear and metallic films
(Epson ClearProof™ and Epson MetallicProof™ ).
Epson UltraChrome ® HDR White Ink introduces an all-new Organic Hollow
Resin Particle Technology, which forces light to randomly scatter, producing
the illusion of seeing the colour white.
This innovative way to produce the colour white yields an amazing white ink
density, ability for custom white colour toning, and provides professional
short-term colour stability for mission-critical colour proofing on a range of
new substrates including ink jet coated transparent and metallic films. Unlike
traditional white ink chemistry, Epson UltraChrome ® HDR White Ink is a
safer, water-based resin particle - void of any known carcinogens.
Capable of printing directly on both
ink jet coated clear and metallic
films, in roll or cut sheet, up to 24
inches wide, the Epson Stylus ™ Pro
WT7900 can proof virtually any size
print job thrown at it. Whether you're
creating contract proofs of various
packaging products requiring a clear
or metallic base, or producing colour
accurate packaging mock-ups or
prototypes, the Epson Stylus ™ Pro WT7900
can easily proof your most difficult
flexographic and gravure print jobs.
Epson Stylus® Pro WT7900 Applications
Include :
Water bottle packaging:
Typically transparent, label design for water bottles often
requires proofs that contain white print. The Epson SP
WT7900, with its white ink capability, is ideal for this type
of proofing.
Multi-media proofing capability:
The Epson SP WT7900 with white ink is all you need
for creating precision proofs on not only film, but also
on a wide variety of other media to simulate different
packaging.
Snack packaging:
The highly competitive snack food industry makes innovative
packaging an imperative. It is difficult to proof designs that
use highly realistic images, which in the past required
expensive press or DCCP proofs. Now, the combination of
the Epson SP WT7900 and the Epson ClearProof™ Film
now make it possible to accurately simulate vivid spot
colours and how the design will reproduce on clear film.
Food packaging:
Food packaging should make the contents look as
appetising as possible. It also needs to accurately show
the contents inside, while differentiating the product by
design. The combination of Epson SP WT7900 and
Epson ClearProof™ Film is the best choice for proofing
this type of packaging.
Luxury package proofing:
High-end products like luxury perfumes and cosmetics are
typically distributed in specially designed packaging. The
superb print quality and versatile media handling capability
of the Epson SP WT7900 allows you to simulate a wide
variety of packaging.
Clear boxes:
With the increasing popularity of clear plastic and glass
packaging, the ability to quickly produce designs for these
packages is important. Smooth white and colour
gradations in addition to translucent printing allows the
Epson SP WT7900 to reproduce eye-catching designs. This makes it the
perfect tool to rapidly and accurately obtain proofs for a wide variety of
packaging sizes and shapes.
Non-package proofing:
In addition, because the Epson SP WT7900 utilises the
acclaimed Epson UltraChrome ® HDR ink set, customers are
able to perform a wide range of non-packaging printing as
well, such as accurate pre-press proofs, photographic prints
and poster prints.
